Future Optimist Ep. 135 - Carrie Chan: Pioneering Lab-Grown Fish
Carrie Chan is the Co-Founder & CEO of Avant Meats, the first cultivated fish company in Asia.
What is cultivated fish? If you assumed it meant fish that’s refined and well-educated, you’re wrong, but hey that’s what I thought, too!
Instead, it means that they are able to create real fish using the cells in a process that’s not dissimilar to brewing beer. They can take the fish cells and multiply them in a controlled environment, bringing you real fish without the animal killings, without those yummy microplastic seasonings that we all love so much, and without toxic heavy metals like that mercury that gives fish its healthy, wholesome taste.
Carrie has raised over 13 million dollars for her idea so far, and in my opinion, it’s the future of fish and meat.
